Having pioneered in 2014, wearables will continue their road this year. The program, online watches and bracelets and all sorts of novelties. However, this is not always among renowned manufacturers we find the most innovative products. And Tago Arc is proof since it is the first wearable customizable and able to operate without a battery.
How a connected accessory is it able to operate without a battery? Simply through NFC. In summary, this is your smartphone that will provide the necessary energy.
Obviously, only equipped with a strap with a screen and an NFC chip, do not expect a host of features. The Tago Arc will not display your notifications and do not will monitor your physical activity but will simply be customizable. It will thus be able to post on its flexible e-ink screen, the images and motifs transmitted through your smartphone. Currently, the transfer time is 15 seconds but should be divided by four before its release.
In summary, this is primarily a fashion accessory that will match the demand with different outfit’s ladies, through technology, NFC and e-ink screen. Employees materials design also tell us enough about the target to whom this new strap: stainless steel with gold and silver options.
Apart from the fact that it is rather surprising to see the technology invite in the field of fashion, which is most striking is that the manufacturers could offer their wearables by combining e-ink screen and an NFC chip. The features currently found would require, of course, a battery but flexible and economical energy character of this display technology could appeal to more than one user.
Currently, Tago Arc is on Indiegogo funding phase with a target of 40 000 dollars before going into production. However, its starting price is 259 dollars. A higher rate could be daunting one. Its release date is scheduled for December 2015.
